After falling for months, egg prices are rising again and could continue that way in 2024 as farmers grapple with another outbreak of bird flu.Anyone go shopping today? I was just at Walmart where 18 eggs were $7 again. Last week they were $3 The lady next to me asked me if Easter was soon and if that's why. Don't know what the reasoning is now.
I paid $4.32 for 18 on Sunday at Walmart on Madison. My wife did baking so we used up the 18 we bought the week before, they were $4.32 then.Anyone go shopping today?

"Brown eggs are local eggs and local eggs are fresher."Last time this happened I bought the brown eggs as they were cheaper
Our DD picks up milk from a dairy in glass bottles. About 5 years ago, we watched the kids for several days while they were on a trip. I made her buy milk from the store in plastic. Didn't want to be dealing with heavy glass bottles with toddler under foot.I am going to have to check when I go to the store tomorrow. I have all my dairy delivered (milk in glass bottles) and I get my eggs from them as well so I never look at that section when I shop. oddly the farm has not changed their prices since I joined (they did add $1 delivery fee) I heard on the news the were issues with bird flu so I’m not sure if that is driving the prices up.
I bought a dozen eggs this week at Aldi also and they were $2.12. A few months ago they were $.96 cents$1.27 dozen at our Aldi
